- Genre: Contemporary Romance
Description
Theo Prescott is better off alone. A successful divorce attorney, he knows that relationships don't last, true love isn't real, and fairy tales are the stuff of fantasy. Deep down, he knows if he let himself fall for someone, he'd only end up causing pain. And he refuses to do that to anyone—including and especially his best friend, Lauren. Even if she's gorgeous, ambitious, and smart. Warm and funny. Talented and quite possibly perfect for him.
Lauren MacKinnon has been pining after Theo for the better part of a decade. He's sexy, intelligent, thoughtful and makes her laugh harder than anyone else. He's her best friend, but if he knew how she felt about him, he'd run for the hills. She's well aware of how he feels about love and relationships. And as much as her unrequited feelings hurt, she's not willing to risk their friendship for an impossibility.
Lauren knows it's time to move on, so when her friends suggest Theo set her up on a blind date, she agrees. But when Theo realizes that he can't handle watching Lauren with another man, sparks just might fly.
Reviews
Nice story
5By MelbladeOvercoming fears to have a relationship. Starting out as best friends is a good start to the relationship. Would be good to do a follow up on how they do together.A healthy serving of cringe
2By DM0402I couldn’t get past the “oh no, I have feelings for my best friend but my parents had an awful marriage so clearly I can’t have a mature relationship” on the MMC’s part. It was non-stop. He acts like he is doomed or that it’s some impossible vicious cycle to break. She also clearly has feelings for him. Everyone sees it, but him. The dialogue and internal monologues remind me of the gummy bear commercial where it’s adults around a conference table and yet, “the red one is more gooder to me because it tastes like berries.” It’s children acting like adults. That is this story. I couldn’t get into it. Had to DNF around the time they finally hook up. Skimmed some more and called it good.Stupid Love

4By NewEarthorBustI really enjoyed the story of a friendship growing into a deep love. I skipped the multi-paged sex scenes, because that was a bit much for me. But, if you like that kind of thing, it’s here, too.The title was right on the money. Stupid Love.
5By VmbarryThe story had all the points it’s suppose to to make it good. Thank you.
